Let thy lips ever her dear name repeat:

Nor how forget that clear ingenuous mind,

That heavenly beauty, generous soul, to meet

So rare! the world admired such gifts combined.

But now I see thee to the dusky grove

Of cypress and rose-bay trees take thy way;

On thy right hand a crown is hanging, wove

Of mournful everlastings; nor astray

Thine eyes scarce raising, fearing to behold

The monument of thine eternal grief,
